Digital BW, The Print

Anyone have a Crown Graphic they want to sell?

thanks,
danny

I sold mine a couple of years ago on Ebay.  There are about 16 for sale 
there now, and nearly 40 have been sold in the past couple of weeks 
(which will give you an idea what they go for.)  I've had excellent 
dealings over the years with sellers who have excellent feedback.

Cheers,
Kip

Hi Kip,

I've been watching ebay for awhile, but most of the seller won't ship 
outside US.....

thanks,
danny

That can be a problem, Danny.  I've frequently declined to ship outside 
the US on small ebay items, but usually would make the extra effort for 
larger items.  You can check each item to see where the seller will 
ship.  Otherwise, Pacific Rim Camera and Lens and Repro both have some 
Crowns on hand, but they're pretty proud of them - they might not be 
worth what they're asking, especially if the shipping adds much extra.

Good luck finding one.  I loved the one I had the few times I used it - 
pretty clearly the best bang for the buck out there if you didn't want 
to deal with a cheap monorail.

Cheers,
Kip

Danny:

Go to the homepage

www.graflex.org/

Follow Some of the links.  It will lead you to used camera places.

I have not advertised these, but I do have three Graphics I would 
sell.  I'd sell individually, but would prefer to sell all in one 
deal.
   
2 1/4 X 3 1/4 Speed Graphic with GraphLoc back.
4 X 5 Speed Graphic with GraphLoc back.
4 X 5 Graphic View II (with GraphLoc back, fitted case, etc)

For each of the two sizes of cameras, I have various sizes of roll 
film backs and cut film backs.  I have a Polaroid back for the 4 X 5 
format. Various extras too.

Please email me directly if anyone is interested.

That board is not maintained...I provided the link so you could use it
in some imaginative and unintended way :-)

Last month I searched some Graphics type models, Crown Graphics, Speed 
Graphics are quite easy to get in the USA but Super Graphics and Super 
Speed Graphics are not often for sale. What is the reason for that, 
still popular, lower quantity produced ?

Ernst

The "super" models are far heavier and their rangefinders are not as
rugged as the cheaper models. They don't offer more utility or any
improvement in optics. You might take this question to the Graflex
forum for more opinion. 

I use a 6X9cm Century Graphic from the Seventies and a 4X5" Speed
Graphic from the thirties. Both are lighter and more rugged than
Hassleblad (for example), have comparable optics (Rodenstock, Zeiss),
and produce much larger negatives. 6X9 is far larger than 6X6, dwarfs 
35mm.   

If one works in B&W he/she may want some real film experience, and
"should" (to use a word that's popular on this forum) experiment with
larger formats. 6X9 and 4X5 scan beautifully with $300 flatbeds making
handsome, sharp, grainless, noiseless 13X19.

Which flatbeds will scan these size negs?

I've had great results with a discontinued (bargain) Epson 3200...the
newer 4870 is probably even sharper and is also a bargain, especially
if you get it directly from Epson as a refurb (epson website). I got
my 3200 as a refurb while that model was still being sold new, saved
over $100.
